APST Antialiased Procedural Texturing Interface for OpenGL
نویسندگان
چکیده
The current implementation of OpenGL only supports standard 1-D and 2-D texture mapping. An interface is proposed to extend the OpenGL library, to support a simpli ed model of antialiased procedural solid texturing in OpenGL version 1.1. This extension to the OpenGL language does not modify the existing OpenGL standard. It is designed as a supplemental library that works with existing implementations of OpenGL. The extended API for procedural solid texturing is outlined. The limitations regarding the extension of OpenGL are noted. Finally, suggestions are made for modifying the OpenGL standard to provide a tighter integration of OpenGL and procedural solid texturing.

Antialiased Parameterized Solid Texturing Simplified for Consu
Procedural solid texturing was introduced fourteen years ago, but has yet to find its way into consumer level graphics hardware for real-time operation. To this end, a new model is introduced that yields a parameterized function capable of synthesizing the most common procedural solid textures, specifically wood, marble, clouds and fire. This model is simple enough to be implemented in hardware...
متن کاملThe Solid Map: Methods for Generating a 2-D Texture Map for Solid Texturing
The solid map provides a view-independent method for solid texturing using an ordinary 2-D surface texture map. The solid map transforms a model’s polygons into 2-D texture space without overlap. It then rasterizes the polygons in this space, interpolating the solid texture coordinates across the pixels of the polygon. These stored solid texture coordinates are then read by a texture synthesis ...

Web Graphics has become an important and new platform today, since there are more and more people that would like to have 3D graphics supports on the Web. In order to distribute 3D graphics applications from servers to clients on different platforms, a general-purpose 3D graphics library for Java called jGL is developed as the base of the 3D graphics applications for Web Graphics. To make jGL t...

Perlin noise is one of the primary tools responsible for the success of procedural shading in production rendering. It breaks the crisp computer generated look by adding apparent randomness that is controllable and repeatable. Both Perlin’s original noise algorithm and his later improved noise were designed to run efficiently on a CPU. These algorithms do not map as well to the design and resou...
